Weapon from a Fallen Star

[Verse 1] I found a bright shard where the cold air bends Held it like a promise I could not defend You took the weight with both hands open wide And wore my little storm against your side [Pre-Chorus] The ice gives way beneath a careful step Some gifts grow heavy after they are kept [Chorus] I forged a weapon from a fallen star And gave it to you Its usefulness to me is limited My usefulness to you has limits too I would break my heart on your heart It doesn't mean we'll break apart [Verse 2] White laces crossing over borrowed ground Thin blades writing circles without sound A meteor of iron crossed the blue And every wish I made came back to you You lost the hunger for the strange and new Still every road kept bending back to you [Chorus] Sometimes the wave overwhelms you And I wonder how much your heart can take I forged a weapon from a fallen star And gave it to you Its usefulness to me is limited My usefulness to you has limits too I would break my heart on your heart It doesn't mean we'll break apart [Bridge] If the surface cracks, don't look below Keep one hand steady, let the other go I carry the weight of the wishes you made Until the last bright mark begins to fade [Final Chorus] I forged a weapon from a fallen star And gave it to you No promise lasts forever unchanged But I still know what I came to do I would break my heart on your heart Let the fracture show its shape Sometimes the wave overwhelms you Still I wonder how much your heart can take [Outro] The blade goes quiet in the falling white Your hands are warm; the sky gives back its light
